Here's the script:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;

Issue parentIssue = issue.getParentObject();
def parentIssueKey, issueKey;

if (parentIssue != null) {
	parentIssueKey = parentIssue.getKey();
    return parentIssueKey;
}
else {
    issueKey = issue.getKey();
    return issueKey;
}

And here's the JQL operand you should append to filters for this ordering to be applied:

ORDER BY "Parent Issue Key" ASC, key ASC
